The jacket fits as it is designed. It is a motorcycle jacket. The sleeves are the right length for riding a motorcycle. The back and the shoulders have extra room for outstretched arms. You would be happier with something like an A2 Flight Jacket, which has knit cuffs. It's a classic WW2 era design for military pilots.
But the sleeves get in my way and it is actually very uncomfortable. Since I cannot cuff the leather sleeves, they are always hanging on my hands. Might have to tailor them🥲
Seems like a few commenters think a moto style jacket has to be ridden on a motorcycle. What happens when you go into the bar after getting off the bike? A jacket can and should work in multiple situations, and typically if it doesn’t feel right while walking around, it’ll be worse on a bike. The sleeves don’t need to be that long for motorcycle riding, either. Just slightly longer than the wrist. You can then wear gloves to cover anything else. Everybody has different proportions, so shortening the sleeves would be perfectly appropriate. That’s why there are custom makers, not every jacket is going to fit all of us well off the rack. Probably be much better after breaking it in too.
Thank you so much for the comment! I do see how longer sleeves can be helpful when riding bikes, but like you mention, when I am not on the bike but sitting in a bar drinking and still want to keep the jacket on (cuz it's cool), I'd want the sleeves shorter. I don't bike but even if I do, I'd still prefer shorter sleeves for more comfort for more situations.
@@loneruggedkazuki yeah, for sure - I tend to prefer shorter sleeves with most jackets, even if they ride up a little when reaching out. I tend to do physical stuff in my jackets, so getting the sleeve out of the way as I reach for/into stuff makes it convenient. Plus shorter sleeves just look better, stylistically.
Proportionally, white people usually have longer limbs than Asians. I have the same struggle with sleeves being too long or the jacket length being too long. Not sure if you've had experience with any high-quality Asian leather jacket brands. Maybe they'd fit better. I'd be interested to know. Also it's funny, Zara jackets fit me perfectly as well. We must have the same body type/proportions or something lol
Greetings Kazuki. I guess you are around my height, and i will tell you: The 530 is NOT really a motorcycling jacket, for a number of reasons. It's a moto style jacket rather. Anyway, the main points to determine a proper fit for a jacket are: Shoulders: The most important by far. The shoulder seam should be right at your shoulder bone, or very slightly past it, in a defect. Further away or smaller than the shoulders, it's a bad fit. Which this one does not. Your shoulders fit right where they should. Waist length: An actual jacket should fit between the belt line and mid fly. Longer than that and being a "jacket" and not a coat, not a good fit either. I also find that section properly fitting. Chest and waist: It should ideally be fitted but not tight, so you can layer a hoodie or stuff underneath. Close to the body is good but you get the compromise of the jacket being unable to fit if you gain weight. Chest should naturally be relaxed and not tight feeling. Sleeves: The width shouldn't be much larger than the wearer, while allowing for movement, and the length should be between the wrist bone or mid - hand, not past the knuckles. That is the point where i see it fits the worse in this jacket. Naturally the best that you can do is get the garment sent to a tailor. Anyway, i'd say that the best that you can do is either get a fitted garment in the same materials or better leather (CXL is the best, i'd say even above Shinki horse) or on the other side, get the jacket tailored. Because the 530 is great. Unfortunate that the sleeves are that long, because it is a moto style jacket. If i am very frank with you, there are very few leathers better than the one used for the 530. I would try to get it fitted. And i also say this because you could get a Thursday that will fit better, but between Thursday and Schott there's no comparison point. Greetings
Thank you so much for the detailed information! I agree with you and will definitely get the sleeves tailored. I do want to wear this Schott jacket property and am willing to pay extra money to help it fit me better. I actually tried Thursday Boot's leather jacket, and that one had really bad quality issue. I hated it so much tbh. I returned it and got full refund but am trying to stay away from them. I made a video about it if you are interested😅
@@loneruggedkazuki Thanks Kazuki. Hoping you are well: Yes i saw that video hehe, unfortunate what happened. If i had gotten the Thursday i wouldn't dislike it because of the paint flaking off (Since mexican leather has a very bad paintjob on it XD) but because it was lambskin. I think for a first timer jacket lamb is okay but i personally think that calfskin is the greatest compromise between durability and comfort. Another good one is toggled cowhide like this 530 jacket, (Which is much softer than veg tanned steerhide or horse) but the cowhide tends to be much heavier. By the way i have to condition my jacket which is very close in style and leather to the 530. I tend to like those leathers much more but they do take a very good time to break in. A Schott horsehide jacket starts feeling okay after a couple years or at least one, wearing it to every place and getting it rained on. I do like a lot the lambskin feel but i tended to feel as if i wasn't wearing anything when i had my lamb jacket, hehe.
BTW i meant that i am used to redyeing my jackets and shoes since the leather has a blue interior iand it is very poorly painted on top. And yeah, the 530 is worth getting it tailored. Best wishes
@@javierdiazsantana Thanks again! Very much appropriated the comments. I did like the simplicity and the construction of the Thursday's jacket. It was the leather they used that should not have passed whatever the quality assurance card that the jacket comes with covers (also the quality card had a bunch of misspells) If I were to try another Thursday's products, I'd get their boots that are made with Horween leather (I live in Chicago and love the Horween leather. It cannot go wrong with it). Yeah this Schott jacket is quite heavy and still very stiff (It looks much softer on other UA-cam channels because the guys on the channels have been wearing the jackets longer). I will keep wearing this and take a good care as needed!
That'd be a great way to get a jacket! Unfortunately, Schott does not accept returns after you wear it and take off the tags. I still love this jacket, so I will just tailor it to better suit my body
Just as a few others have commented, this jacket was made for motorcycle riders. Guys love the look and want to appropriate it for themselves without riding one, which is fine. But then be ready for longer sleeves, a tighter fit, and a high waist.
I think you need to go down one size…I am 5”7 and use to be 160 pounds and wore a medium jacket and had the same fit as you. So I lost weight and now wear a size small and I still have the same issue with the arms. So now all my jackets are a size 38 small and I still had to have the arms shortened on most of my jackets. Schott is a wonderful jacket so I personally would keep the jacket and have the arms shortened as long as you are happy with the rest of the fit… All leather jackets in my opinion are restrictive in movement. All of my leather jackets are and they are all top dollar jackets.This is normal and takes some getting used to. Everyone I know here in the US are buying Japanese jackets and I mean the jackets that cost $2k. So I joined that club thinking that they would be less restrictive and just simply more comfortable, however I have come to realize that thick leather jackets aren’t as comfortable as cotton. I love them anyways and will always wear leather jackets!
Yeah I love the jacket overall and am definitely keeping it. just need to shorten the sleeves. I have been watching many youtube videos about leather jackets am blown away by the fact that there are many people across the globe that admire Japanese leather jacket (I hear Shinki-Hikaku a lot). I'm sure it will fit me better than American made jacket. I totally agree it's not comfortable at all! but I love the way it looks and the history of Schott's jacket. I will try keep wearing it no matter what!💪
Hello, i hope youtube translate this for you: Mi hermano, métete en Google y busca imágenes del actor Tom Cruise con chaquetas de cuero, particularmente de la película "the war of the worlds" y la primera de Jack Reacher. Hay muchas más fotos del mismo, pero en la vida real, pero mi punto es que: notarás que las chaquetas de cuero que él usa no le quedan muy diferentes que a tí con tu chaqueta, espero que eso te brinde algún alivio, o perspectiva sobre el tema. En otro video tuyo ví que le mandaste a quitar parte del brazo, creo personalmente que hubiera sido mejor que la dejaras así por más tiempo antes de tomar esa decisión, pero igualmente te entiendo, yo también me he sentido igual que tú. Yo también soy pequeño de estatura, y me obsesiona que mis chaquetas de cuero (tengo 8) me queden bien, pero eso nunca será como los modelos de las fotos, olvidate de eso, te lo digo.
Thanks for the comment again (UA-cam translated it)! Will check out the Tom Cruise photo for sure! Also glad you watched my tailor video! I think that was a good move and I like my jacket even better😊
In my opinion it looks big on you.. the sleeves for sure are way too long. I had the same issues with the fit of schott. They fit me terribly. that’s why I went with going custom. Aero leathers makes a great jacket and so does thedi. I made a couple videos about my jacket if you’re interested.
You can spec out an aero jacket to be cheaper I just chose some expensive options like Badalassi. It’s possible your jacket just needs the sleeve altered.
hi Kazuki, im 5’6 123 lbs and i wanted to buy schott 654vn but im afraid those jacket will even more baggy on me according to what i see from you. but what confuses me is that i ask from schott the measurement of the jacket and it seems it will fit me, but youre a bigger guy and its baggy to you, im so confused rn
Hi! Thanks for the commemt. I'm not fully sure. A lot of people say this jacket is supposed to be baggy (or not too tight). And my jacket is not too tight at all and it is a bit baggy but I guess it's just the way it is. I would just order them online and see if they fit you or not. Remember to keep the tags and do not wear it too much (maybe just try it on inside). You'd have to pay $10 ish fee when returning but it's always better to see the jacket in person first. it's expensive
@@loneruggedkazuki the problem is im from Indonesia the cost and duration of sending the jacket makes me impossible to return in, oh well, iguess i wont take the risk to spend thousand of dollars, thank you for the reply king
全然大丈夫だよ？ピッタリ！腕の長さは、分かる、私も短い方が好きけど、バイク乗る時丁度いいから、平気。シャワーで濡れたら少し短くなるけど、まぁ、大丈夫だよ？雨で遊んだら？笑よくなるかも！ I don’t think it’s too big at all, the sleeves are perfect for riding, and the length is fine, as is the back.. if you want to shrink it a touch? You could try a full shower soak, then wear it until it’s dry, pulling the sleeves up somewhat to wrinkle them and help the jacket adjust to your body shape? But it looks fine to me as is.. perhaps wear it in a reasonable rainfall? That’ll do just a touch..
Hey I have the same exact cafe racer from schott. I do think the sleeves are a bit long for your body. For reference I’m 5ft 10in and I fit in a medium. I’m 185 lb and have a muscular build like yourself.if you want to keep the jacket then definitely get the sleeves tailored. It shouldn’t be hard for them to correct it for you. Best of luck
I noticed some taller dudes wear similar looking jackets with sleeves long enough to cover most of their thumbs too. I have been told that cafe racer jacket's sleeves are meant to be this long but idk. Yeah I think I'll tailor them and it will be perfect. Thanks for your comment!
Hello. I had the same issue with this jacket. I am 5’6 and 145lbs. I tried both size Small and X-small. Both were too long in height wise. It would pass my zipper area. I like my jacket closer to my belt line since i am short. The sleeves were too long as you suggested however I didn’t worry too much about it since Schott reps said that are very easy to be tailored. I eventually ended up returning the jacket, it is definitely more suited towards taller built men Lol. It’s a shame though because it is definitely a quality built jacket as Schotts are known for.
I have never wished this much that I was a bit taller before😂 I am sure anything looks better on taller people. But, I remember seeing one of my friends wearing a leather jacket well (He was about the same height as me). I will see if I can make it work!
The sleeves will get slightly as they crease, but should still be a bit longer than you are used to to get that motorcycle fit. You can get them shortened by a good tailor who works with tether, but IM it's overall a but too large for you, a tad too long, and wide on the shoulders.
Some Westerners have wider shoulders, chest and longer harms, if they are in shape, otherwise they have a bigger mid section, narrow shoulders and mens teats. So it depends in your diet and lifestyle.
I totally agree! I'd say I'm bigger for a Japanese person but I'm short (about 5.5). I feel this jacket was made to fit for westerners, who in general have a different body type from Asian and it totally makes sense cuz it's made in USA. I might tailor the jacket again to better fit myself.
If I'm being honest, the jacket actually looks a smidge small on you when zipped. I wear a small in this jacket and have a similar build to you but the sleeves fit me just past my wrist around the knukle of my thumb. The sleeves are definitely too long, even for a motorcycle jacket, shouldn't pass your knuckles like that.
Yeah as I actually struggle with putting it on / taking it off, it is small overall but there are some parts that are too big. I think it's the sleeves and length of the jacket overall. I will see if I can tailor the sleeve!
@@loneruggedkazuki the length I think is alright because it’s suppose to be a modern take on a cafe racer jacket. It also fits me past my belt buckle. If anything just get the sleeves shortened a bit and you should be good.
I agree the arms are too long. If you fix that I think you will be more comfortable in it as less leather will bunch up on the arms. I think the body and shoulders of the jacket fit you well. You want some room to move in and also for layering imo.
Schott makes one of the best quality leather jackets for the price. It looks good on you, once the sleeves are tailored I think it will be less of an issue
@@loneruggedkazuki I bought a Ralph Lauren leather racer jacket and the arms were too long but the rest fit perfect. I thought of altering but my wife talked me out of it. I returned it

@@loneruggedkazuki You do not need a tailor. You need a motorcycle.
I know l what you mean! It does get awkward when typing lol but just unzip the wrist area and you are good
Not a moto jacket. An actual moto jacket from Schott is the 613 or stuff.
The leather should be thicker and stiffer for ridin', and a number of other features make the 530 inappropiate for that.

Yeah I get that point but I feel they are just too long for that too
Schott makes one of the best quality leather jackets for the price. It looks good on you, once the sleeves are tailored I think it will be less of an issue
Yeah I hope so!
@@loneruggedkazuki Reach out to Schott customer service directly. They shorten sleeves up to 2 inches for about $85.
The Jacket is perfect. Maybe just shorten the sleeve's to the knuckle of your thumb.
Yeah I'm in love with this jacket, so hopefully it will be more comfortable with shortened sleeves!
The arms on the racer jackets is always long. Maybe you can get it altered?
Yeah I've been thinking of altering it. It's a bit scary to do so cuz I don't wanna ruin the jacket. I hope it'll go well!
@@loneruggedkazuki I bought a Ralph Lauren leather racer jacket and the arms were too long but the rest fit perfect. I thought of altering but my wife talked me out of it. I returned it
